Apocalyptic documents that capture the desecration suffered by Church of Agia Sophia in Istanbul, came to light again.
This time, the president of the Art History Association (STD), Sherif Yasar, posted a video on twitter that provoked new reactions.
Today I will compare a lot of results in Hagia Sophia. A new scandal everywhere. Did you write a letter to the council? @TC_istanbul @TCKulturTurizm @ iktm34 @MehmetNuriErsoy @SanatTarihiSTD pic.twitter.com/frctgJzciG

The video shows that in the support column there are names and shapes that have been engraved with a sharp object, inside.
Yasar shows the area and the surface where the disaster is seen and points out that there has been no worse “resilience” than this spectacle. He even criticizes those responsible for the lack of precautionary measures, while talking about the murder of cultural heritage.
“I came across another image of shame today in Hagia Sophia. New scandal every time I go. Look here, not a single person saw it and did not inform about this incident? “
Images of vandalism of the iconic temple have become a common occurrence. During the week photos were released with visitors scraping the walls while very recently the Imperial Gate was severely damaged.
